That year has an alternator with a built in regulator. Sounds like your alternator is toast.
 
according to tester, charging at almost 14 volts. But not showing up on the amp meter on dash.
 
Dump the ampmeter and put in a voltmeter. Then change out your alternator to a one wire one. I did this and they just seem to work alot better.
